Hi Subbeh,
I am trying to change

Code:

while test $count -le ${CURRENTRUNSCTRL}
      do
          if [ "$count" = 1 ]
          then mj7777_ver='1' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 2 ]
          then mj7777_ver='2' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 3 ]
          then mj7777_ver='3' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 4 ]
          then mj7777_ver='4' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 5 ]
          then mj7777_ver='5' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 6 ]
          then mj7777_ver='6' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 7 ]
          then mj7777_ver='7' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 8 ]
          then mj7777_ver='8' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          if [ "$count" = 9 ]
          then mj7777_ver='9' start_mj7777_iteration
          fi
          let count=count+1
       done

to this

Code:

strcurrent=123456789
      count=1
      while test $count -le ${CURRENTRUNSCTRL}
      do
          ver=${strcurrent:${count}:1}
          mj7777_ver=${ver} start_mj7777_iteration
          let count=count+1
       done

so it is fewer lines and easier to read or add further threads

Thanks for your suggestion though as I will see if I can use it somehow

elf64_fsize

elf32_fsize(3ELF)                                              ELF Library Functions                                             elf32_fsize(3ELF)

NAME

       elf32_fsize, elf64_fsize - return the size of an object file type

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ... -lelf [ library ... ]
       #include <libelf.h>

       size_t elf32_fsize(Elf_Type type, size_t count, unsigned ver);

       size_t elf64_fsize(Elf_Type type, size_t count, unsigned ver);

DESCRIPTION

       elf32_fsize() gives the size in bytes of the 32-bit file representation of count data objects with the given type. The library uses version
       ver to calculate the size. See elf(3ELF) and elf_version(3ELF).

       Constant values are available for the sizes of fundamental types:

              Elf_Type  File Size Memory Size
              ELF_T_ADDR     ELF32_FSZ_ADDR sizeof(Elf32_Addr)
              ELF_T_BYTE     1    sizeof(unsigned char)
              ELF_T_HALF     ELF32_FSZ_HALF sizeof(Elf32_Half)
              ELT_T_OFF ELF32_FSZ_OFF  sizeof(Elf32_Off)
              ELF_T_SWORD    ELF32_FSZ_SWORD     sizeof(Elf32_Sword)
              ELF_T_WORD     ELF32_FSZ_WORD sizeof(Elf32_Word)

       elf32_fsize() returns 0 if the value of type or ver is unknown. See elf32_xlatetof(3ELF) for a list of the type values.

       For the 64-bit class, replace 32 with 64 as appropriate.
